I have a small green house in my back yard. I wouldn't dream of putting pot plants in there as anytime any utility worker, or phone guy, or the guys that trim trees for power lines comes into the back yard, they always sneak a peek in there. It's funny to see when they don't know you are watching.

/overwinter some plants//propagate others for next spring///sometimes extend the seasons of peppers and cherry peppers

So what you should do is build a really tall tower man, and like put the plants up really high so no one can see it up there and they're all like "that can't be a grow op cuz it's in a tower and people do grow ops underground!"

NutWrench:Apparently it doesn't snow where that greenhouse is located because the first heavy, wet snow would crush that frame.

Yeah, I say sink the floor half as deep, raise the rammed earth wall a bit, build a really sturdy frame with sealed solid plexiglass and then we'll talk. $15 000 - 30 000 for something that won't look like total shiat and will actually last you for everything (materials, labor, equipment rental, permits, inspections, etc.)

This is nice if you have a lot of land, live in the country, and know how to build things, but if you live in the suburbs you're better off with a sun room attached to the back of your house.

Hey, is this one of those threads where a bunch of people who have never done something talk about how the thing that was actually done could never work, even though it has worked for hundreds of years?
